Father Vincent boarded at St. Pats College Silverstream at the same time as my brother Peter Haines boarded there. As we lived in Lower Hutt Vincent used to spend the home weekends at our place. Being Peters younger sister I got to know Father Vincent very well. Peter and my Parents went to Nelson to his ordination. Would like to hear from anyone who knew them both around about that time in their lives.

My sincere condolences to the family of Fr. Vince. He welcomed me to his community in Silverstream back in 1983 where I stayed for 8 years. I will always be grateful to him for that. He seemed always so calm as he puffed his pipe. Rest in Peace Father Vince. Donal O'Boyle (Slane, Ireland)
